Deputies say they overturned furniture, threw books, and sprayed graffiti throughout the library.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"517\" data-end=\"755\">Authorities were alerted by a triggered fire alarm. When deputies arrived, they found shattered glass and widespread destruction. Body-camera footage and photos showed books strewn across the floor and extensive damage to school property.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"757\" data-end=\"934\">Surveillance images released by the sheriff\u2019s office showed two masked youths entering the library. One wore a distinctive Monster Energy hat, which aided in his identification.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"936\" data-end=\"1206\">After the footage was shared publicly, several tips came in\u2014but the most significant leads came from the boys\u2019 own mothers, who recognized them and contacted authorities. Both boys allegedly confessed, admitting they returned a second time to view and cause more damage.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1208\" data-end=\"1354\">The suspects, Felix Cohen Romero, 12, and Bentley Ryan Wehrly, 13, now face charges including burglary, criminal mischief, trespassing, and theft.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1356\" data-end=\"1567\">Public reaction has been mixed. Many praised the mothers for their honesty, calling it a strong example of parental accountability. Others expressed concern about the long-term effects of early criminal records.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1569\" data-end=\"1772\">Some suggested restorative justice options\u2014like helping with cleanup or offering apologies\u2014highlighting the broader debate about where responsibility truly lies: with families, schools, or the community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two Florida middle schoolers face serious juvenile charges after their mothers identified them as the culprits behind more than $50,000 in damage to a school library.
